Yep.

One of my longtime friends was a police officer — back in the day when she was among the very first women on the force.

She had been to court on a police matter — and lost. (It was nothing from headlines.)

She later needed a lawyer for a different matter.

When she made the appointment and walked into the lawyer’s office, he was stunned. (Actually, she was rather gorgeous, but that was not the reason.)

He said, “You want to hire ME?!”

To which she replied, “Absolutely. You kicked my ass in court.”

She won that one.

That's a good one - Golfing with the Eagles. I see that you are better with the English language than you are with economic stimulus solutions. And I think the Golfing Eagles means that you idolize the Philadelphia Eagles football players that also play golf. I'm from Philly - you from Philly?

People were drinking in the bar when suddenly a man stood up and yelled “All lawyers are A-Holes!” It got really quiet for a moment and then gradually people started talking and drinking again. Shortly thereafter the man stood up again and yelled “All lawyers are A-Holes! It got quiet again and another man stood up and yelled “I resent that statement!” The first man said “Why, are you a lawyer?” The second man said “no, I’m an A-hole.”

Why do they bury lawyers 12ft down, instead of 6ft, like everyone else?
Because, deep down, they're really good people!

I thought this site today really sucked. I hope none of you ever need a lawyer and if you do, I hope they screw you over royally. No sense of humor about lawyer and religious jokes.

A lawyer mistakenly receives a double payment from a client, $10,000 instead of $5,000.

What is the ethical question to address here?

Return it to the client? Nope.

The real question is does he tell his partner about it.
